I created a post on how to prevent overwritten data to prevent data regression. I learned that the way to do this was session locking, in which I found ProfileService was my best option(even though I had previously used ProfileService and had the same error I’m having now).

local Data = require(script.Parent.PlayerDataHandler)
local Remotes = ReplicatedStorage.Remotes
local Bindables = ReplicatedStorage.Bindables
local Leveling = {}
Bindables.OnServer.Event:Connect(function(signal,player,amount)
if signal == "Gain" then
player:SetAttribute("Round_XP",player:GetAttribute("Round_XP") + amount)
Data:Update(player,"Experience",function(past)
return past + amount
end)
local xp = Data:Get(player,"Experience")
local level = Data:Get(player,"Level")
local progress = xp / (300 * level)
if progress >= 1 then
Data:Update(player,"Experience",function(past)
return past - (300 * level)
end)
Data:Update(player,"Level",function(past)
return past + 1
end)
progress = Data:Get(player,"Experience") / (300 * Data:Get(player,"Level"))
end
elseif signal == "UI" then
for _,player in Players:GetPlayers() do
if player:GetAttribute("Enabled") == false then return end
local level = Data:Get(player,"Level")
local experience = Data:Get(player,"Experience")
print(level)
Remotes.ToClient:FireClient(player,"LoadXP",experience,level,player:GetAttribute("Round_XP"))

Both of these scripts I think are valid and I got the ProfileDataHandler from this video.
I don’t understand why I am getting nan despite the intialization for the dataTemplate key “Level” being 1(cannot be nan, only 0/0, and level only adds += 1). I also don’t understand how this would be happening if profileservice is handling the sessionlocking for me.
I assume though that this is happening because of a previous error I had when creating levels, and I did create a ProfileServiceHandler just like this one for my game in the past.
Any ideas?
